#Greece expresses its solidarity with the people of Venezuela following the devastating earthquake near Caracas.
We extend our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and stand by all those affected.
To Greeks around the world:
Emperor Justinian gave the Christian world Hagia Sophia, one of the greatest monuments of Byzantine civilization. According to ancient Christian tradition, he also founded the Monastery of Our Lady of Saydnaya in Syria.
We lost Hagia Sophia.
Now, Saydnaya — her sister in the East — is facing intimidation, isolation, and growing pressure.
This monastery is not only Syrian. It is part of the living Byzantine and Orthodox heritage that unites Syria, Greece, and Eastern Christians.
Do not let Saydnaya stand alone.
Save Saydnaya.

The United States, Greece, Israel and Cyprus sent a clear message from Houston: cooperation is gaining ground in the EastMed.

Turkish soldiers entered her home. She was tortured.
Then she was raped by multiple soldiers.
She heard shit firing but didn’t know what was going on.
When they were done, she went to see what had happened and all the people in her house had been killed.
Her brother’s head had been cut off.
Her father was shot.
Her grandfather, her stepmom were faced down on the couch.
The soldiers took her to another house where they started raping her again.
This is what the turks did when they invaded Cyprus. Does it sound familiar?
Thank you, Greece, for becoming the newest partner of our capacity development work. As I told FM @Pierrakakis, Greece has come a long way: from a country needing support to now able to help others. It will contribute to SEETAC, strengthening economic institutions in SE Europe.
Greece has recovered from adversity to become one of Europe’s best-performing economies. I spoke with @ekathimerini on lessons from its success: tackle structural issues boldly, spend prudently, and embrace areas of comparative advantage. Have a read:

Greece was once shut out of markets and collecting too little tax. Today it runs a primary budget surplus and stands as one of only five EU countries to do so. Tax administration reform powered this striking reversal. https://t.co/RZggSA3HFr
"The Ottoman child-gathering (devshirme) and the Islamization of Greek populations were a major blow to Greek communities and practically constitute a form of genocide."
